CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

The present application claims benefit of priority to U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 62/354,449, filed Jun. 24, 2016, and U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 62/426,095 filed Nov. 23, 2016, both of which are incorporated by reference in their entireties.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

The high proliferation rate of cancer cells is a result not only of decreased cell death but also of improperly regulated cell cycling, allowing evasion of growth suppressing signals. Although multiple cell cycle checkpoints can be impaired in cancer, the mitotic or spindle assembly checkpoint is of great importance both in tumorigenesis and as an anticancer target. This point of regulation, which is responsible for ensuring appropriate chromosome segregation, is required for cell viability. Cells with a weakened mitotic check point are capable of survival but do not maintain proper chromosome segregation, resulting in genomic instability and aneuploidy. PARP (poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase) is an important protein in DNA repair pathways especially the base excision repair (BER). BER is involved in DNA repair of single strand breaks (SSBs). If BER is impaired, inhibiting PARP, SSBs accumulate and become double stand breaks (DSBs). In addition, PARP can act on many mediators of cell cycle progression through its effects on gene expression. However, direct regulation of the mitotic checkpoint by PARP is another important factor that may be exploited in the development of an optimal cancer therapy.

Recent reports suggest multiple roles for PARP in the structural machinery of mitosis. First, PAR, which is primarily synthesized by PARP, is required for assembly and function of the bipolar spindle. In addition, PARP-1 both localizes to and PARylates proteins at centromeres and centrosomes during mitosis. PARP-1 also mediates PARylation of p53, which is responsible for regulating centrosome duplication and monitoring chromosomal stability. Loss of PARP activity is associated with mislocalization of centromeric and centrosomal proteins, resulting in incomplete synapsis of homologous chromosomes, defective chromatin modifications, and failure to maintain metaphase arrest, indicating loss of mitotic checkpoint integrity. Similarly, inhibition of PARP-1 is associated with genomic instability characterized by reduced stringency of mitotic checkpoints, centrosome hyper-amplification, and chromosomal aneuploidy. Furthermore, PARP-1 has been shown to interact with the E3 ubiquitin ligase, CHFR, a tumor suppressor with an important role in the early mitotic checkpoint. Binding of these two proteins results in cell cycle arrest in prophase, an effect stimulated by microtubule inhibitors resulting in resistance to this class of drugs in cancer cells. Thus, inhibition of PARP or microtubules, or both, could significantly increase cancer cells death, and may be a promising anti-cancer strategy.

The present invention relates to compounds having microtubule-perturbing and/or anti-PARP activity. These compounds may be used for treatment in the animal of a disease associated with tubulin polymerization or PARP, or both. This, and other uses of these compounds are described herein.

Where substituent groups are specified by their conventional chemical formulae, written from left to right, they equally encompass the chemically identical substituents, which would result from writing the structure from right to left, e.g., —CH₂O— is intended to also recite —OCH₂—.

The term “poly” as used herein means at least 2. For example, a polyvalent metal ion is a metal ion having a valency of at least 2.

“Moiety” refers to a radical of a molecule that is attached to the remainder of the molecule.

The symbol

The term “alkyl,” by itself or as part of another substituent, means, unless otherwise stated, a straight or branched chain, or cyclic hydrocarbon radical, or combination thereof, which may be fully saturated, mono- or polyunsaturated and can include di- and multivalent radicals, having the number of carbon atoms designated (i.e. C₁-C₁₀ means one to ten carbons). In some embodiments, the term “alkyl” means a straight or branched chain, or combinations thereof, which may be fully saturated, mono- or polyunsaturated and can include di- and multivalent radicals. Examples of saturated hydrocarbon radicals include, but are not limited to, groups such as methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, isopropyl, n-butyl, t-butyl, isobutyl, sec-butyl, cyclobutyl, cyclohexyl, (cyclohexyl)methyl, cyclopropyl, cyelopropylmethyl, homologs and isomers of, for example, n-pentyl, n-hexyl, n-heptyl, n-octyl, and the like.

The term “heteroalkyl,” by itself or in combination with another term, means, unless otherwise stated, a stable straight or branched chain, or cyclic hydrocarbon radical, or combinations thereof, consisting of the stated number of carbon atoms and at least one heteroatom. In some embodiments, the term “heteroalkyl,” by itself or in combination with another term, means a stable straight or branched chain, or combinations thereof, consisting of the stated number of carbon atoms and at least one heteroatom. In an exemplary embodiment, the heteroatoms can be selected from the group consisting of B, O, N and S, and wherein the nitrogen and sulfur atoms may optionally be oxidized and the nitrogen heteroatom may optionally be quatemized. The heteroatom(s) B, O, N and S may be placed at any interior position of the heteroalkyl group or at the position at which the alkyl group is attached to the remainder of the molecule. Examples include, but are not limited to, —O—CH₃, —CH₂—CH₂—O—CH, —CH₂—CH₂—NH—CH₃, —CH₂—CH₂—N(CH₃)—CH₃, —CH₂—CH₂—CH₂—N(CH₃)—CH₃, —CH₂—S—CH₂—CH₃, —CH₂—CH₂—S(O)—CH₃, —CH₂—CH₂—S(O)₂—CH₃, —CHCH═CH—O—CH₃, —CH₂CH═N—OCH₃, and —CH═CH—N(CH₃)—CH₃. Up to two heteroatoms may be consecutive, such as, for example, —CH₂—NH—OCH₃.

For heteroalkylene groups, heteroatoms can also occupy either or both of the chain termini (e.g., alkyleneoxy, alkylenedioxy, alkyleneamino, alkylenediamino, and the like). Still further, for alkylene and heteroalkylene linking groups, no orientation of the linking group is implied by the direction in which the formula of the linking group is written. For example, the formula —C(O)₂R′— represents both —C(O)₂R′— and —R′C(O)₂—.

The terms “cycloalkyl” and “heterocycloalkyl”, by themselves or in combination with other terms, represent, unless otherwise stated, cyclic versions of “alkyl” and “heteroalkyl”, respectively. Additionally, for heterocycloalkyl, a heteroatom can occupy the position at which the heterocycle is attached to the remainder of the molecule. Examples of cycloalkyl include, but are not limited to, cyclopentyl, cyclohexyl, 1-cyclohexenyl, 3-cyclohexenyl, cycloheptyl, and the like. Examples of heterocycloalkyl include, but are not limited to, 2-(4-methylpiperazin-1-yl)ethyl, 3-(4-methylpiperazin-1-yl)propyl, 2-morpholinoethyl, 3-morpholinopropyl, 1-methylazetidin-3-yl, 1-ethylazetidin-3-yl, 1-isopropylazetidin-3-yl, 1-methylpiperidin-4-yl, 1-ethylpiperidin-4-yl or, 1-isopropylpiperidin-4-yl, 1-(1,2,5,6-tetrahydropyridyl), 1-piperidinyl, 2-piperidinyl, 3-piperidinyl, 4-morpholinyl, 3-morpholinyl, tetrahydrofuran-2-yl, tetrahydrofuran-3-yl, tetrahydrothien-2-yl, tetrahydrothien-3-yl, 1-piperazinyl, 2-piperazinyl, and the like.

Additionally, terms such as “haloalkyl,” are meant to include monohaloalkyl and polyhaloalkyl. For example, the term “halo(C₁-C₄)alkyl” is mean to include, but not be limited to, trifluoromethyl, 2,2,2-trifluoroethyl, 2-fluoroethyl, 2,2-difluoroethyl, 2-chloroethyl, 3-chloropropyl, 4-chlorobutyl, 3-bromopropyl, and the like.

The term “aryl” means, unless otherwise stated, a polyunsaturated, aromatic, substituent that can be a single ring or multiple rings (preferably from 1 or 2 or 3 rings), which are fused together or linked covalently. The term “heteroar” refers to aryl groups (or rings) that contain from one to four heteroatoms. In an exemplary embodiment, the heteroatom is selected from B, N, O, and S, wherein the nitrogen and sulfur atoms are optionally oxidized, and the nitrogen atom(s) are optionally quaternized. A heteroaryl group can be attached to the remainder of the molecule through a heteroatom. Non-limiting examples of aryl and heteroaryl groups include phenyl, 1-naphthyl, 2-naphthyl, 4-biphenyl, 1-pyrrolyl, 2-pyrrolyl, 3-pyrrolyl, 3-pyrazolyl, 2-imidazolyl, 4-imidazolyl, pyrazinyl, 2-oxazolyl, 4-oxazolyl, 2-phenyl-4-oxazolyl, 5-oxazolyl, 3-isoxazolyl, 4-isoxazolyl, 5-isoxazolyl, 2-thiazolyl, 4-thiazolyl, 5-thiazolyl, 2-furyl, 3-furvl, 2-thienyl, 3-thienyl, 2-pyridyl, 3-pyridyl, 4-pyridyl, 2-pyrimidyl, 4-pyrimidyl, 5-benzothiazolyl, purinyl, 2-benzimidazolyl, 5-indolyl, 1-isoquinolyl, 5-isoquinolyl, 2-quinoxalinyl, 5-quinoxalinyl, 3-quinolyl, and 6-quinolyl. Substituents for each of the above noted aryl and heteroaryl ring systems are selected from the group of acceptable substituents described below.

For brevity, the term “aryl” when used in combination with other terms (e.g., aryloxy, arylthioxy, arylalkyl) includes both aryl and heteroaryl rings as defined above. Thus, the term “arylalkyl” is meant to include those radicals in which an aryl group is attached to an alkyl group (e.g., benzyl, phenethyl, pyridylmethyl and the like) including those alkyl groups in which a carbon atom (e.g., a methylene group) has been replaced by. for example, an oxygen atom (e.g., phenoxymethyl, 2-pyridyloxymethyl, 3-(1-naphthyloxy)propyl, and the like).

Each of the above terms (e.g., “alkyl,” “heteroalkyl,” “aryl” and “heteroaryl”) are meant to include both substituted and unsubstituted forms of the indicated radical. Preferred substituents for each type of radical are provided below.

Substituents for the alkyl and heteroalkyl radicals (including those groups often referred to as alkylene, alkenyl, heteroalkylene, heteroalkenyl, alkynyl, cycloalkyl, heterocvcloalkyl, cycloalkenyl, and heterocycloalkenyl) are generically referred to as “alkyl group substituents,” and they can be one or more of a variety of groups selected from, but not limited to: —R′,—OR′,═O, ═NR′,═N—OR′,—NR′R″, —SR′,-halogen, —SiR′R″R′″, —OC(O)R′,—C(O)R′,—CO₂R′,—CONR′R″, —OC(O)NR′R″, —NR″C(O)R′,—NR′—C(O)NR″R′″, —NR″C(O)₂R′, —NR′″″—C(NR′R″R′″)═NR″″, —NR″″—C(NR′R″)═NR′″, —S(O)R′,—S(O)₂R′, —S(O)₂NR′R″, —NR″SO₂R′,—CN, —NO₂, —N₃, —CH(Ph)₂, fluoro(C₁-C₄)alkoxy, and fluoro(C₁-C₄)alkyl, in a number ranging from zero to (2m′+1), where m′ is the total number of carbon atoms in such radical. R′,R″, R′″, R″″ and R′″″ each preferably independently refer to hydrogen, substituted or unsubstituted haloalkyl, substituted or unsubstituted heteroalkyl, substituted or unsubstituted heterocycloalkyl, substituted or unsubstituted aryl, e.g., aryl substituted with 1-3 halogens, substituted or unsubstituted alkyl, alkoxy or thioalkoxy groups, or alylalkyl groups. When a compound of the invention includes more than one R group, for example, each of the R groups is independently selected as are each R′,R″, R′″, R″″ and R′″″ groups when more than one of these groups is present. When R′ and R″ are attached to the same nitrogen atom, they can be combined with the nitrogen atom to form a 5-, 6-, or 7-membered ring. For example, —NR′R″ is meant to include, but not be limited to, 1-pyrrolidinyl and 41-morpholinyl. From the above discussion of substituents, one of skill in the art will understand that the term “alkyl” is meant to include groups including carbon atoms bound to groups other than hydrogen groups, such as haloalkyl (e.g., —CF₃ and —CH₂CF₃) and acyl (e.g., —C(O)CH₃, —C(O)CF₃, —C(O)CH₂OCH₃, and the like).

Similar to the substituents described for the alkyl radical, substituents for the aryl and heteroaryl groups are generically referred to as “aryl group substituents.” The substituents are selected from, for example: —R′,—OR′,═O, ═NR′,═N—OR′, —NR′R″, —SR′,-halogen, —SiR′R″R′″, —OC(O)R′,—C(O)R′,—CO₂R′,—CON R′R″, —OC(O)NR′R″, —NR″C(O)R′,—NR′—C(O)NR″R′″, —NR″C(O)₂R′, —NR′″″—C(NR′R″R′″)═NR″″, —NR″″,—C(NR′R″)═NR′″, —S(O)R′,—S(O)₂R′, —S(O)₂NR′R″, —NR″SO₂R′,—CN, —NO₂, —N₃, —CH(Ph)₂, fluoro(C₁-C₄)alkoxy, and fluoro(C₁-C₄)alkyl, in a number ranging from zero to the total number of open valences on the aromatic ring system, and where R′,R″, R′″, R″″ and R′″″ are preferably independently selected from hydrogen, substituted or unsubstituted alkyl, substituted or unsubstituted heteroalkyl, substituted or unsubstituted aryl and substituted or unsubstituted heteroaryl. When a compound of the invention includes more than one R group, for example, each of the R groups is independently selected as are each R′,R″, R′″, R″″ and R′″″ groups when more than one of these groups is present.

Two of the substituents on adjacent atoms of the aryl or heteroaryl ring may optionally be replaced with a substituent of the formula -T-C(O)—(CRR′)_(q)—U—, wherein T and U are independently —NR—, —O—, —CRR′— or a single bond, and q is an integer of from 0 to 3 Alternatively, two of the substituents on adjacent atoms of the aryl or heteroaryl ring may optionally be replaced with a substituent of the formula -A-(CH₂)_(r)—B—, wherein A and B are independently —CRR′—, —O—, —NR—, —S—, —S(O)—, —S(O)₂—, —S(O)₂NR′— or a single bond, and r is an integer of from 1 to 4. One of the single bonds of the new ring so formed may optionally be replaced with a double bond. Alternatively, two of the substituents on adjacent atoms of the aryl or heteroaryl ring may optionally be replaced with a substituent of the formula —(CRR′)_(s)—X—(CR″R′∴)_(d)—, where s and d are independently integers of from 0 to 3, and X is —O—, —NR′—, —S—, —S(O)—, —S(O)₂—, or —S(O)₂NR′—. The substituents R, R′,R″ and R′″ are preferably independently selected from hydrogen or substituted or unsubstituted C₁ or C₂ or C₃ or C₄ or C₅ or C₆ alkyl.

“Ring” as used herein, means a substituted or unsubstituted cycloalkyl, substituted or unsubstituted heterocycloalkyl, substituted or unsubstituted aryl, or substituted or unsubstituted heteroaryl. A ring includes fused ring moieties. The number of atoms in a ring is typically defined by the number of members in the ring. For example, a “5- to 7-membered ring” means there are 5 or 6 or 7 atoms in the encircling arrangement. Unless otherwise specified, the ring optionally includes a heteroatom. Thus, the term “5 to 7-membered ring” or “5 or 6 or 7 membered ring” includes, for example phenyl, pyridinyl and piperidinyl. The term “5 to 7-membered heterocycloalkyl ring” “5 or 6 or 7-membered heterocycloalkyl ring”, on the other hand, would include pyridinyl and piperidinyl, but not phenyl. The term “ring” further includes a ring system comprising more than one “ring”, wherein each “ring” is independently defined as above.

As used herein, the term “heteroatom” includes atoms other than carbon (C) and hydrogen (H). Examples include oxygen (O), nitrogen (N) sulfur (S), silicon (Si), germanium (Ge). and aluminum (Al).

The term “leaving group” means a functional group or atom which can be displaced by another functional group or atom in a substitution reaction, such as a nucleophilic substitution reaction. By way of example, representative leaving groups include triflate, chloro, bromo and iodo groups; sulfonic ester groups, such as mesylate, tosylate, brosylate, nosylate and the like; and acyloxy groups, such as acetoxy, trifluoroacetoxy and the like.

The symbol “R” is a general abbreviation that represents a substituent group that is selected from substituted or unsubstituted alkyl, substituted or unsubstituted heteroalkyl, substituted or unsubstituted aryl, substituted or unsubstituted heteroaryl, substituted or unsubstituted cycloalkyl and substituted or unsubstituted heterocycloalkyl groups.

By “effective” amount of a drug, formulation, or permeant is meant a sufficient amount of an active agent to provide the desired local or systemic effect. A “Topically effective,” “pharmaceutically effective,” or “therapeutically effective” amount refers to the amount of drug needed to effect the desired therapeutic result.

The term “pharmaceutically acceptable salt” is meant to include a salt of a compound of the invention which is prepared with relatively nontoxic acids or bases, depending on the particular substituents found on the compounds described herein. When compounds of the invention contain relatively acidic functionalities, base addition salts can be obtained by contacting the neutral form of such compounds with a sufficient amount of the desired base, either neat or in a suitable inert solvent. Examples of pharmaceutically acceptable base addition salts include sodium, potassium, calcium, ammonium, organic amino (such as choline or diethylamine or amino acids such as d-arginine, l-arginine, d-lysine, or l-lysine), or magnesium salt, or a similar salt. When compounds of the invention contain relatively basic functionalities, acid addition salts can be obtained by contacting the neutral form of such compounds with a sufficient amount of the desired acid, either neat or in a suitable inert solvent. Examples of pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts include those derived from inorganic acids like hydrochloric, hydrobromic, nitric, carbonic, monohydrogencarbonic, phosphoric, monohydrogenphosphoric, dihydrogenphosphoric, sulfuric, monohydrogensulfuric, hydriodic, or phosphorous acids and the like, as well as the salts derived from relatively nontoxic organic acids like acetic, propionic, isobutyric, maleic, malonic, benzoic, succinic, suberic, fumaric, lactic, mandelic, phthalic, benzenesulfonic, p-tolylsulfonic, citric, tartaric, methanesulfonic, and the like. Also included are salts of amino acids such as arginate and the like, and salts of organic acids like glucuronic or galactunoric acids and the like (see, for example, Berge et al., “Pharmaceutical Salts”, Journal of Pharmaceutical Science 66: 1-19 (1977)). Certain specific compounds of the invention contain both basic and acidic functionalities that allow the compounds to be converted into either base or acid addition salts.

The neutral forms of the compounds are preferably regenerated by contacting the salt with a base or acid and isolating the parent compounds in the conventional manner. The parent form of the compound differs from the various salt forms in certain physical properties, such as solubility in polar solvents.

In addition to salt forms, the invention provides compounds which are in a prodrug form. Prodrugs of the compounds described herein readily undergo chemical changes under physiological conditions to provide the compounds of the invention. Additionally, prodrugs can be converted to the compounds of the invention by chemical or biochemical methods in an ex vivo environment.

Certain compounds of the invention can exist in unsolvated forms as well as solvated forms, including hydrated forms. In general, the solvated forms are equivalent to unsolvated forms and are encompassed within the scope of the invention. Certain compounds of the invention may exist in multiple crystalline or amorphous forms.

Certain compounds of the invention possess asymmetric carbon atoms (optical centers) or double bonds; the racemates, diastereomers, geometric isomers and individual isomers are encompassed within the scope of the invention. The graphic representations of racemic, ambiscalemic and scalemic or enantiomerically pure compounds used herein are taken from Maehr, J. Chem. Ed. 1985, 62: 114-120. Solid and broken wedges are used to denote the absolute configuration of a stereocenter unless otherwise noted. When the compounds described herein contain olefinic double bonds or other centers of geometric asymmetry, and unless specified otherwise, it is intended that the compounds include both E and Z geometric isomers. Likewise, all tautomeric forms are included.

Compounds of the invention can exist in particular geometric or stereoisomeric forms. The invention contemplates all such compounds, including cis- and trans-isomers, (−)- and (+)-enantiomers, (R)- and (S)-enantiomers, diastereomers, (D)-isomers, (L)-isomers, the racemic mixtures thereof, and other mixtures thereof, such as enantiomerically or diastereomerically enriched mixtures, as falling within the scope of the invention. Additional asymmetric carbon atoms can be present in a substituent such as an alkyl group. All such isomers, as well as mixtures thereof, are intended to be included in this invention.

Optically active (R)- and (S)-isomers and d and/isomers can be prepared using chiral synthons or chiral reagents, or resolved using conventional techniques. If, for instance, a particular enantiomer of a compound of the invention is desired, it can be prepared by asymmetric synthesis, or by derivatization with a chiral auxiliary, where the resulting diastereomeric mixture is separated and the auxiliary group cleaved to provide the pure desired enantiomers. Alternatively, where the molecule contains a basic functional group, such as an amino group, or an acidic functional group, such as a carboxyl group, diastereomeric salts can be formed with an appropriate optically active acid or base, followed by resolution of the diastereomers thus formed by fractional crystallization or chromatographic means known in the art, and subsequent recovery of the pure enantiomers. In addition, separation of enantiomers and diastereomers is frequently accomplished using chromatography employing chiral, stationary phases, optionally in combination with chemical derivatization (e.g., formation of carbamates from amines).

The compounds of the invention may also contain unnatural proportions of atomic isotopes at one or more of the atoms that constitute such compounds. For example, the compounds may be radiolabeled with radioactive isotopes, such as for example tritium (3H), iodine-125 (¹²⁵I) or carbon-14 (¹⁴C). All isotopic variations of the compounds of the invention, whether radioactive or not, are intended to be encompassed within the scope of the invention.

The term “pharmaceutically acceptable carrier” or “pharmaceutically acceptable vehicle” refers to any formulation or carrier medium that provides the appropriate delivery of an effective amount of an active agent as defined herein, does not interfere with the effectiveness of the biological activity of the active agent, and that is sufficiently non-toxic to the host or patient. Representative carriers include water, oils, both vegetable and mineral, cream bases, lotion bases, ointment bases and the like. These bases include suspending agents, thickeners, penetration enhancers, and the like. Their formulation is well known to those in the art of cosmetics and topical pharmaceuticals. Additional information concerning carriers can be found in Remington: The Science and Practice of Pharmacy, 21st Ed., Lippincott, Williams & Wilkins (2005) which is incorporated herein by reference.

The term “pharmaceutically acceptable additive” refers to preservatives, antioxidants, fragrances, emulsifiers, dyes and excipients known or used in the field of drug formulation and that do not unduly interfere with the effectiveness of the biological activity of the active agent, and that is sufficiently non-toxic to the host or patient. Additives for topical formulations are well-known in the art, and may be added to the topical composition, as long as they are pharmaceutically acceptable and not deleterious to the epithelial cells or their function. Further, they should not cause deterioration in the stability of the composition. For example, inert fillers, anti-irritants, tackifiers, excipients, fragrances, opacifiers, antioxidants, gelling agents, stabilizers, surfactant, emollients, coloring agents, preservatives, buffering agents, other permeation enhancers, and other conventional components of topical or transdermal delivery formulations as are known in the art.

The term “excipients” is conventionally known to mean carriers, diluents and/or vehicles used in formulating drug compositions effective for the desired use.

The terms “effective amount” or a “therapeutically effective amount” of a drug or pharmacologically active agent refers to a nontoxic but sufficient amount of the drug or agent to provide the desired effect. In the oral dosage forms of the present disclosure, an “effective amount” of one active of the combination is the amount of that active that is effective to provide the desired effect when used in combination with the other active of the combination. The amount that is “effective” will vary from subject to subject, depending on the age and general condition of the individual, the particular active agent or agents, and the appropriate “effective” amount in any individual case may be determined by one of ordinary skill in the art using routine experimentation.

The phrases “active ingredient”, “therapeutic agent”, “active”, or “active agent” mean a chemical entity which can be effective in treating a targeted disorder, disease or condition.

The phrase “pharmaceutically acceptable” means moieties or compounds that are, within the scope of medical judgment, suitable for use in humans without causing undesirable biological effects such as undue toxicity, irritation, allergic response, and the like, for example.

The phrase “oral dosage form” means any pharmaceutical formulation administered to a subject via the oral cavity. Exemplary oral dosage forms include tablets, capsules, films, powders, sachets, granules, solutions, solids, suspensions or as more than one distinct unit (e.g., granules, tablets, and/or capsules containing different actives) packaged together for co-administration, and other formulations known in the art. An oral dosage form can be one, two, three, four, five or six units. When the oral dosage form has multiple units, all of the units are contained within a single package, (e.g. a bottle or other form of packaging such as a blister pack). When the oral dosage form is a single unit, it may or may not be in a single package. In a preferred embodiment, the oral dosage form is one, two or three units. In a particularly preferred embodiment, the oral dosage form is one unit.

The phrase “unit”, as used herein, refers to the number of discrete objects to be administered which comprise the dosage form. In some embodiments, the dosage form includes a compound of the invention in one capsule. This is a single unit. In some embodiments, the dosage form includes a compound of the invention as part of a therapeutically effective dosage of a cream or ointment. This is also a single unit. In some embodiments, the dosage form includes a compound of the invention and another active ingredient contained within one capsule, or as part of a therapeutically effective dosage of a cream or ointment. This is a single unit, whether or not the interior of the capsule includes multiple discrete granules of the active ingredient. In some embodiments, the dosage form includes a compound of the invention in one capsule, and the active ingredient in a second capsule. This is a two unit dosage form, such as two capsules or tablets, and so such units are contained in a single package. Thus the term ‘unit’ refers to the object which is administered to the animal, not to the interior components of the object.

“Biological medium,” as used herein refers to both in vitro and in vivo biological milieus. Exemplary in vitro “biological media” include, but are not limited to, cell culture, tissue culture, homogenates, plasma and blood. In vivo applications are generally performed in mammals, preferably humans.

“inhibiting” and “blocking,” are used interchangeably herein to refer to the partial or full blockade of an enzyme, such as PARP1 (Poly ADP Ribose Polymerase1) and/or PARP2 and/or tubulin.

Embodiments of the invention also encompass compounds that are poly- or multi-valent species, including, for example, species such as dimers, trimers, tetramers and higher homologs of the compounds of use in the invention or reactive analogues thereof.

Serum protein binding may be predicted from albumin binding assays. Such assays are described in a review by Oravcova, et al. (Journal of Chromatography B (1996) volume 677, pages 1-27).

Compound half-life is inversely proportional to the frequency of dosage of a compound. In vitro half-lives of compounds may be predicted from assays of microsomal half-life as described by Kuhnz and Gieschen (Drug Metabolism and Disposition, (1998) volume 26, pages 1120-1127).

The amount of the composition required for use in treatment will vary not only with the particular compound selected but also with the route of administration, the nature of the condition being treated and the age and condition of the patient and will ultimately be at the discretion of the attendant physician or clinician.

VI. a) Testing

Preferred compounds for use in the pharmaceutical formulations described herein will have certain pharmacological properties. Such properties include, but are not limited to, low toxicity, low serum protein binding and desirable in vitro and in vivo half-lives. Assays may be used to predict these desirable pharmacological properties. Assays used to predict bioavailability include transport across human intestinal cell monolayers, including Caco-2 cell monolayers. Serum protein binding may be predicted from albumin binding assays. Such assays are described in a review by Oravcova et al. (1996, .1 Chromat. B677: 1-27). Compound half-life is inversely proportional to the frequency of dosage of a compound. In vitro half-lives of compounds may be predicted from assays of microsomal half-life as described by Kuhnz and Gleschen (Drug Metabolism and Disposition, (1998) volume 26, pages 1120-1127).

Toxicity and therapeutic efficacy of such compounds can be determined by standard pharmaceutical procedures in cell cultures or experimental animals, e.g., for determining the LD50 (the dose lethal to 50% of the population) and the ED₅₀ (the dose therapeutically effective in 50% of the population). The dose ratio between toxic and therapeutic effects is the therapeutic index and it can be expressed as the ratio between LD₅₀ and ED₅₀. Compounds that exhibit high therapeutic indices are preferred. The data obtained from these cell culture assays and animal studies can be used in formulating a range of dosage for use in humans. The dosage of such compounds lies preferably within a range of circulating concentrations that include the ED₅₀ with little or no toxicity. The dosage can vary within this range depending upon the unit dosage form employed and the route of administration utilized. The exact formulation, route of administration and dosage can be chosen by the individual physician in view of the patient's condition. (See, e.g. Fingl et al., 1975, in “The Pharmacological Basis of Therapeutics”, Ch. 1, p. 1).

VI. b) Administration

For any compound used in the method of the invention, the therapeutically effective dose can be estimated initially from cell culture assays, as disclosed herein. For example, a dose can be formulated in animal models to achieve a circulating concentration range that includes the EC₅₀ (effective dose for 50% increase) as determined in cell culture, i.e., the concentration of the test compound which achieves a half-maximal inhibition of infected cell growth. Such information can be used to more accurately determine useful doses in humans.

In general, the compounds prepared by the methods, and from the intermediates, described herein will be administered in a therapeutically or cosmetically effective amount by any of the accepted modes of administration for agents that serve similar utilities. It will be understood, however, that the specific dose level for any particular patient will depend upon a variety of factors including the activity of the specific compound employed, the age, body weight, general health, sex, diet, time of administration, route of administration, and rate of excretion, drug combination, the severity of the particular disease undergoing therapy and the judgment of the prescribing physician. The drug can be administered from once or twice a day, or up to 3 or 4 times a day.

Dosage amount and interval can be adjusted individually to provide plasma levels of the active moiety that are sufficient to maintain infected cell growth inhibitory effects. Usual patient dosages for systemic administration range from 0.1 to 1000 mg/day, preferably, 1-500 mg/day, more preferably 10-200 mg/day, even more preferably 100-200 mg/day. Stated in terms of patient body surface areas, usual dosages range from 50-91 mg/m²/day.

The amount of the compound in a formulation can vary within the full range employed by those skilled in the art. Typically, the formulation will contain, on a weight percent (wt %) basis, from about 0.01-10 wt % of the drug based on the total formulation, with the balance being one or more suitable pharmaceutical excipients. Preferably, the compound is present at a level of about 0.1-3.0 wt %, more preferably, about 1.0 wt %.

Synthesis of Compounds of the Invention

Scheme 1 depicts the general synthetic routes fur compounds of the invention and is not intended to be limiting. Specific examples are described subsequently to this general synthetic description. In the generalizations below, specific reaction conditions or details, for example, added reagents, catalysts, solvents, reaction temperature, and the like are not described. The general routes depicted in conjunction with the specific examples provided contain sufficient information to allow one of ordinary skill in the art to synthesize compounds of the invention.

A number of methods may be available for the synthesis of compounds represented by formula A-3 and A-4; most of them involve the cyclization of ortho-substituted arylaldehydes, followed by C-3 alkylation, condensation of 3-bromo-pthalides with aldehydes, the Wittig-Homer reaction of philialide-3-phosphonate esters (A-1) with aldehydes (A-2) or reacting phthalic anhydrides with phenylacetic acids. (SCHEME A).

One of the most attractive methods for the synthesis of 3-isobenzofurane-1-ones (A-3) is a copper (I) mediated tandem Sonogashira coupling and intramolecular 5-oxo-dig cyclization reaction. For example, reaction of 2-iodobenzoic acid (A-5a) and phenyl acetylenes (A-6) in the presence of a copper catalyst (copper(I) bromide, copper(I) iodide) and organic (trimethylamine, Hunig's base) or inorganic (potassium carbonate, cesium carbonate) bases in an appropriate solvent (dimethyl sulfoxide, 7V,N-dimethyl formamide) afford A-3 in excellent yield. 2-Brornobenzoic acid (A-5b) and terminal alkyne (A-6) may also be used in similar fashion. Electron withdrawing groups such as halogens and/or a pyridyl ring in combination with the carboxylic acid moiety in the A-5 component increase the reactivity of the C-Halogen bond producing phthalides in good yields. Electron-donating groups (methyl, methoxy, tert-butyl) in both, the benzoic acid and the alkyne components decrease the reactivity of the alkyne moiety as well as the reactivity of the C-Halogen bond, resulting in lower yields (SCHEME B.).

For the synthesis of the 3-benzylidene-isoindolin-1-one scaffold, represented by formula A-9, a highly efficient copper-mediated tandem oxidative C(sp2)-H/C(sp)H cross-coupling and intramolecular annulation reaction of arenes with terminal alkynes (A-6) has been developed. In this oxidative coupling process, copper(II)acetate acts as both the promoter and the terminal oxidant, and 8-aminoquinoline as a directing auxiliary (A-8a). This synthetic method tolerates a wide range of substrates and functional groups, proceeds with high chemo-, regio-, and stereoselectivity; it is a simple, readily available, inexpensive reaction system. Isoindolin-1-ones may also be straightforwardly synthesized from terminal alkynes (A-6) and 8-aminoquinoline benzamides (A-8a) utilizing cobalt(II) catalytic system or form substituted 2-aminopyridine 1-oxide amides (A-8b) using nickel(II) catalyst in tandem C(sp2)H alkynylation-annulation reactions. An extension of the above reaction utilizes optionally substituted alkynyl carboxylic acids (A-7) in copper-catalyzed tandem decarboxylative cross-coupling-cyclization reactions with various substituted aromatic amides (A-8a), bearing electron-withdrawing or electron-donating groups (SCHEME C.).

Compounds, represented by formula A-1 1 may also he prepared from an adequately functionalized A-10 in palladium-mediated cross coupling reactions. The heterocyclic ring can be installed directly or may be formed from an appropriate precursor, for example from 2-nitroaniline. Reduction of the 2-nitroaniline intermediate may be carried out under a range of conditions, for example catalytic hydrogenation or hydrogen transfer may be employed using palladium on carbon, platinum oxide or Raney nickel catalysts. Alternatively, iron metal or tin(II) chloride may also be used as effective reducing agents. Conversion of the resulting phenylenediamine to benzimidazole can be achieved in one step, for example treating the appropriate phenylenediamine with 1,3-bis(methoxycarbonyl)-2-methyl-2-thiopseudourea in acetic acid with heating. Alternatively, the conversion may be carried out by treating the phenylenediamine intermediate with a substituted isothiocyanate, followed by heating it in the presence of an appropriate carbodiimide. To introduce other carbamates, ureas or amides at the benzimidazole 2-position the thiopsueudourea reagent of choice may be straightforwardly prepared. Alternatively, the appropriate 2-amino-benzimidazole intermediate may also be conveniently functionalized.

Example 9 PARP1 Enzymatic Activity Inhibition: Determination of IC50 Values for Selected Compounds

The half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) with respect to PARP1 inhibition was determined for each test compound by using Trevigen's HT Universal PARA Assay Kit, according to the manufacturer's protocol (Cat# 4677-096-K, Gaithersburg, Md.). This assay measures the incorporation of biotinylated poly(ADP-ribose) onto histone proteins in a 96-well strip well format. This assay is ideal for the determination of IC50 values of known or suspected PARP inhibitors. Briefly, stock solutions of each test compound were prepared in DMSO. Histone strip wells were incubated for 30 minutes at room temperature with 50 μl/well of 1× PARP Buffer to rehydrate the histones. Serial dilutions of either test compound were added to appropriate wells. Diluted PARP enzyme (0.5 Unit/well) was then added to the wells containing compounds, and incubated for 10 minutes at room temperature. Subsequently, 25 μl of 1× PARP Cocktail, containing activated DNA, was distributed into each well. Three types of control wells were also analyze& i. A negative control without PARP was prepared to determine background absorbance. ii. An activity control for PARP Inhibitor Study: 0.5 Unit/well PARP-HSA without inhibitors. These wells provided the 100% activity reference point. iii. And a PARP Standard Curve: Serial dilution of the PARP-HAS standard were prepared in cold microtubes with 1× PARP Buffer such that the total activity is 1 Unit/25 μl Units/25 μl, 0.25 Units/25 μl, 0.1 Units/25 μl, 0.05 Units/25 μl, 0.025 Units/25 μl, and 0.01 Units/25 μl. 25 μl of each standard was added to triplicate wells. Following a 60 minutes incubation at room temperature, the strip wells were washed twice with 1× PBS +0.1% Triton X-100, and twice with 1× PBS. For activity detection, 50 μl per well of diluted Strep-HRP was added, and then incubated at room temperature for 60 minutes. Subsequently, 50 μl per well of pre-warmed TACS-Sapphire™ colorimetric substrate was added followed by a 15 minutes incubation, in the dark, at room temperature. The reactions were then stopped by adding 50 μl per well of 0.2M HCl or 5% Phosphoric Acid and read the absorbance at 450 nm.

The IC50 values were determined by performing non-linear regression analysis fitting velocities and the logarithm of inhibitor concentrations to a sigmoidal dose response with a variable slope model using the GraphPad Prism 6.0 software.

PARP 2 Enzymatic Activity Inhibition: Determination of IC50 Values for Selected Compounds

Tramline of PARP-DNA Complexes Formation Assay

Trapping PARP on damaged DNA has recently been proposed as a mechanism accounting for the cytotoxicity of many PARP inhibitors. Using a cellular Western Blot assay to measure PARP trapping on damaged DNA, we examined chromatin-bound PARP1. To prepare chromatin-bound subcellular fraction, semiconfluent MDA-MB-436 human breast cancer cells with 10 mL medium in 10 cm dish were exposed to various concentrations of the drugs for 4 hours. Cells were then collected and fractionated using a Subcellular Protein Fractionation Kit from Thermo Scientific (78840) following the manufacturer's instructions. Immunoblotting was carried out using standard procedures. Histone H3 was used as positive markers for chromatin-bound fractions and as loading control. Topoisomerase 1 was used as positive markers for soluble nuclear fractions and as loading control. Rabbit polyclonal anti-PARP1 antibody (#9542) was purchased from cell signaling technology. Rabbit polyclonal anti-histone H3 antibody (#4499) was from cell signaling technology. Mouse monoclonal anti-topoisomerase I antibody [23B11] was purchased from Abeam. Secondary antibodies were horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-conjugated antibodies to rabbit immunoglobulin G (IgG; GE Healthcare).

Tubulin Polymerization Assay

The high-throughput screening-tubulin polymerization assay kit (Cytoskeleton, Cat. # BK011P) is an economical one step procedure for determining the effects of drugs or proteins on tubulin polymerization. Polymerization is followed by fluorescence enhancement due to the incorporation of a fluorescent reporter into microtubules as polymerization occurs. The standard assay tubulin generates a polymerization curve representing the three phases of microtubule formation, namely nucleation, growth, and steady state equilibrium. Compounds that interact with tubulin will often alter one or more of the characteristic phases of polymerization. For example, the anti-mitotic drug paclitaxel eliminates the nucleation phase and enhances the Vmax of the growth phase. Similarly, the microtubule destabilizing drug, vinblastine (also antimitotic) causes a decrease in Vmax and a reduction in final polymer mass. Thus, one application of this assay is the identification of novel anti-mitotics.

The direct effects of the test compounds on tubulin polymerization were investigated using the abovementioned Tubulin polymerization assay kit (Cytoskeleton, Cat. # BK011P), as indicated by the manufacturer protocol. Briefly, bovine brain tubulin (400 μg/sample) in the presence of either 0.5% DMSO treated (control), or increasing concentrations of each test compounds was incubated in PEM buffer [80 mm PIPES, 1 mm EGTA, 1 mm MgCl₂ (pH 6.8)] containing 1.0 mm GTP (G-PEM) and 15° A) glycerol, at 37 C. All samples (wells) contained 15% glycerol. The degree of polymerization over time was measured in a spectrophotometer (Biotek synergy HT plate reader) at 350 nm. All time points were plotted and analyzed using GraphPad Prism 6.0 software.

The IC50 values were determined by performing non-linear regression analysis fitting velocities and the logarithm of inhibitor concentrations to a sigmoidal dose response with a variable slope model using the GraphPad Prism 6.0 software.

Cell Viability Assay in Solid Tumors Cell Lines

Human cancer cell lines (lung, ovarian, breast pancreatic and mesothelioma) were purchased from the ATCC. The cell lines were cultured in RPMI 1640 (Life Technologies, Carlsbad, Calif.) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) and antibiotics. 2000 cells were seeded in 96 well costar plate one day before treatment with test compounds, Olaparib (Selleck Chemicals), Imatnib Mesylate (Selleck Chemicals) or ponatinib at different concentrations for 72 hours, with vehicle (DMSO) as controls. At the end of treatment, cell proliferation was determined by an intracellular adenosine triphosphate monitoring system (Cell-Titer Glo-Promega). Cell lines tested included A549 cells=Human lung adenocarcinoma, OVCAR-8 Cells=Human Ovarian adenocarcinoma; MDA-MB-436 Cells=Human Breast adenocarcinoma cell line with BRCA1-mutation.

Inhibitory activity was evaluated comparing treated versus control data using the GraphPad Prism 6.0 software. The dose inhibiting 50% (IC50) of cell viability was calculated using non-linear regression curve. Results show the mean IC50 value from three different experiments.
